Looks good, but in fact we can use kasan_unpoison_task_stack_below(). We just need to change it a little:

diff --git a/mm/kasan/kasan.c b/mm/kasan/kasan.c
index 70c0097..e779236 100644
--- a/mm/kasan/kasan.c
+++ b/mm/kasan/kasan.c
@@ -80,7 +80,9 @@ void kasan_unpoison_task_stack(struct task_struct *task)
/* Unpoison the stack for the current task beyond a watermark sp value. */
asmlinkage void kasan_unpoison_task_stack_below(const void *watermark)
{
- __kasan_unpoison_stack(current, watermark);
+ void *base = (void *)((unsigned long)watermark & ~(THREAD_SIZE - 1));
+
+ kasan_unpoison_shadow(base, watermark - base);
}


With this we don't have to calculate stack range in assembly.
